Oh! Here we go! 
The second that a reasonable thread about Bytecoin appears in the Alts section, the Monero crew jump in with their tired propaganda.
I wonder why they don't just get on and develop their own clone of Bytecoin instead of wasting folks time on BCT with their endless inane threads and topics.
If you hadn't noticed, Fluffy, the market values Bytecoin higher than Monero. Like OP I have a XMR and BCN bag but I am sick and tired of the Monero crew damaging cryptonote.

There's no propaganda in the facts above. They are not skewed nor twisted, and replicating my searches of the Silk Road 1 forum or of the various 4chan archive sites is a trivial exercise for the reader.
You'll note that in what I wrote I never mentioned CryptoNote nor did I mention Monero. I spoke only of Bytecoin.
We absolutely do give kudos to the mathematician(s) behind the CryptoNote cryptography (and who we'd love to have on the Monero Research Lab panel), and credit does also have to go to the developer(s) who produces the CryptoNote reference code in the 7 months at the end of 2013 / beginning of 2014. If the original Bytecoin developers were involved in the creation of the reference code, then those kudos and credit extend to them up to that point, but we absolutely do not give credit for their attempt to fleece the cryptocurrency community.
On a more personal note, I think we've already demonstrated that there have been big flaws in both the cryptography (see: MRL-0001) and in the code (see: MRL-0002), so how about YOU stop trying to push the agenda of a failed scam and give credit where credit is due? I thought as much.
